Yes you are right it is a Name error because skills was not defined.
Sorry will make things more clear in the future. I have it sorted now.
Will just start from the beginning and try not to go to fast.

Should we *guess*, or would you like to share with us the actual error
you are getting?
My guess is that you're not getting a syntax error at all, you're
getting a NameError that Skills is no
Do you also have to define the class attributes?
class Administrator():
name = ""
os = ""
def Skills(name,os):
name = raw_input('What is your name')
os = raw_input('What is your os')
self.name = name
self.os = os

- print is just being changed to a function (instead of a statement), it's not going away entirely.
But for complete future compatibility I guess you would avoid it.
- I don't think you will ever get the prompt as part of the input unless the user actually types it
- You can strip the trailing new
Try this.
import sys
def my_raw_input(prompt):
sys.stdout.write(prompt)## Since they're thinking of bonking off
print as well.
a = sys.stdin.readline()
if a.startswith(prompt):
return a[:len(prompt)]
return a
It leaves the '\n' on the end... so it sucks.
I know there is
So, as a newbie, I see this thread and I check out the PEP and I see
that for future compatibility we should use sys.stdin.readline(). So
I import sys to see how it works. Of course, sys.stdin.readline('type
anything: ') doesn't work in quite the same way as raw_input('type
anything: ') does. Th
Yeah. And they're thinking of removing raw_input() too. I think it's good
to have a __builtin__ user input function. Why should we have to import sys
everytime we want user input? Almost every program that newbies write uses
it, and advanced programmers also if they're using console programs.

Something I've always wondered: if input() is so dangerous, why is it

I ask this because this confusion comes up a lot: people expect
input() to return a string and it throws them when it doesn't. We all
just learn to use raw_input(), and to forget

Hi John,
when you want user input, you almost always need raw_input(), not input().
